Patterns and Colors Swirling in my Mind

I've been wanting to sew a new shower curtain for our bathroom and have been visiting different fabric sites online trying to decide on a pattern and color.  Right now, my shower curtain is a natural linen color on the bottom half and a cream cotton color on the top half with a bit of black piping to separate the two.  It is B~O~R~I~N~G and I want to add a bright splash of color.  Since spring has sprung here in Texas and all the beautiful colors are everywhere I am itching to do something different  Here are a few samples of the patterns and colors I've been looking at and believe me when I say that I've looked at so many colors and styles that my eyes have started to cross which is why I can't decide.  I love white and grey/taupe with pops of color but sometimes I like to incorporate a bold splash of color and a bit of whimsey to shake things up a bit.

This has a Tahitian flair to it...I kinda like it ~ 100% cotton

Another floral...a bit softer - 100% cotton

As you can see, I can't seem to get away from the florals but I'm thinking both color and whimsey will come from the Tahitian pattern which I think would be fun and the one I am leaning towards! What do you think?

  6. Gorgeous fabrics all of them. But in a bathroom I would go with your choice, a bit of sunshine and fun, why ever not.

  7. I really like the first floral but the Tahitian print is nice too. The variety of colors in either should keep you from getting too bored.

  8. I love patterns with roses ( unfortunately R does not!) and I love blues so I must say - although your collection here is impresive, I would go for the last one : )

  11. I absolutely love the second to the last one but I'm also a big fan of sage green:) How fun to be able to sew, I wish I could just whip up a shower curtain! Maybe I need to learn!

    Have a wonderful day Kris:)
